We have had the pleasure of hiring Dan Birchman as our Buyer’s Agent for multiple home purchases over the past fifteen years. His broad knowledge of the Austin and surrounding markets has allowed us to be able to purchase multiple homes, in incredible areas, and gain a very fair price on our acquisitions in the process. He goes out of his way to make sure our best interests are at heart, and he treats each purchase as if he is making the investment himself. We only work with Dan when we purchase homes in the Austin area. He has become our trusted adviser and friend. We would not consider purchasing without having Dan Birchman as our Buyer Agent! - John and Kristen G.

We can't thank Dan enough for making the process of buying our home a stress-less, smooth, and an enjoyable experience. He listened to every detail about what we were looking for and because of this, it only took looking at a few homes to find the one for us. When it came to negotiating a price, he was able to get us a number we were comfortable with. Every detail about buying a home was clearly explained. He is extremely knowledgeable about the market, could answer all of our questions, and was 100% committed to us. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience! - Cory and Tamera A.

My wife and I had our first experience working with Dan Birchman (Buyer’s Only Real Estate) in the mid 1990’s. He helped us to successfully find and purchase an investment property in the Tarrytown area of Austin. At that time we already considered ourselves experienced home buyers but as the process played out, we very well may have made some major mistakes without Dan’s expert help. As an example he was able to get us the answers to all of our numerous questions and furthermore answered questions we would have never thought to ask. In the subsequent 20 plus years, we have hired Dan’s real estate company for several other property purchases. These properties range from personal homes in suburban Austin to a large tract of rural ranch land. All of these purchases were completed successfully to our great satisfaction. We will not hesitate to contact Dan in the future for any and all of our real estate purchases. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a professional buyer’s agent in the Austin area. - Joseph and Carol B.

Dan Birchman was an invaluable advisor and guide in my most recent home buying experience, which ended quite successfully. My family had a significant number of constraints (in terms of price point, outdoor and indoor air quality, etc.) and he provided us with a number of well researched options that met our needs. With each home we visited, Dan's years of experience building, selling, and researching real estate shined through as he helped us understand the conditions of the home and the various hidden costs and problems that the new owner would face. Specifically, he was keen to point out things like: 1 - how the design and location of the home would affect its resale price in the future, and 2 - how much life the various components of the home had (his estimates typically reflected his nuanced knowledge of the various builders and manufacturers).

I was most impressed by Dan's negotiation skills during the option period on my home. Our house inspector presented compelling evidence that additional tests were necessary on a part of the house, which the sellers (understandably) found quite frustrating, especially since they obtained an expert opinion that contradicted our inspector's. In spite of this, Dan helped convince the sellers to do the additional tests, and my remaining concerns were put to rest.

Last but not least, my family and I enjoyed the time we spent with Dan. He is honest, wise, and dedicated to helping his clients. - Alexander H. PhD
